House Zietsman: Compassionate Palliative Care in a Homely Setting
House Zietsman Care Facility, an initiative of the Cancer Association of Namibia (WO30), provides a tranquil and supportive environment for patients requiring specialised medical care. Located in Klein Windhoek, this 22-bed facility offers a unique blend of professional healthcare and a homely atmosphere, ensuring that patients and their families feel comforted during some of life’s most challenging moments.
Established to meet the growing need for accessible palliative and sub-acute care in Namibia, House Zietsman focuses on more than just treatment. The facility is designed to deliver holistic care that prioritises dignity, comfort, and emotional wellbeing. Patients benefit from a comprehensive range of services, including sub-acute medical care, frail and hospice care, as well as stabilisation and rehabilitation support. Pain and symptom management form a central part of the care approach, ensuring that patients experience the highest possible quality of life.
​
In addition to medical support, House Zietsman places strong emphasis on psychosocial care.
​
Patients and their families are supported through counselling and guidance, helping them navigate the emotional and psychological impact of illness. This integrated approach ensures that care extends beyond physical treatment, addressing the full spectrum of patient needs.
The facility’s peaceful setting at 3 Jan Jonker Road enhances its calming environment, allowing patients to rest and recover in comfort. With a dedicated team and a patient-centred philosophy, House Zietsman continues to play a vital role in Namibia’s healthcare landscape.
As the demand for palliative care services grows, House Zietsman stands as a beacon of compassion and care, supporting patients and families with dignity, respect, and unwavering commitment.
Dear Members of the Public,
Due to the current economic climate, the Cancer Association of Namibia (WO30) has been necessitated to introduce a nominal donation structure for patients who have until now received fully complimentary accommodation, meals and transport at our House Acacia Interim Home while receiving cancer treatment.
Patients who truly have no means to make the N$250 daily donation are encouraged to apply for assistance.
We remain confident that we can keep our interim home doors open and continue to help our patients in their cancer treatment journey.
From the desk of CEO – Cancer Association of Namibia (WO30)
